photo update maybe

Friday, May 30, 2008



: : I think this weekend it might happen. I have the whole weekend to myself to work on the apartment, and I might just find the camera and be able to put together a small photo collage of our new place.

I think this room divider is cool. I apologize, I can no longer remember where I found it.

nonchalant mom



: : domino mag has been a constant source of inspiration for me lately. and I just received the new issue in the mail!! I found this article about .carina schott. , owner of nonchalant mom [via decor8]. it reminds me of home somehow, maybe it's the forest setting, the black facade with a red door, the simplicity of the house....I don't know, but there's a very scandinavian feel about it. I love how the house is built in two parts. the house just seems to have a really good balance of function and aesthetics. some day....maybe we'll find a house like this.

Cary Grant - Palm Springs

Thursday, May 29, 2008


Say what you will about Cary Grant's acting... but in his day he reflected the image of the classic debonair leading man during Hollywood's Golden years...a by gone era of contract studio actors and actresses. These were the days of image and illusion about who people really were and who the studios portrayed them to be. Everybody had a pseudonym even Archibald Leach. Surprisingly Grant's 1927 Palm Springs hideaway, now up for sale, seems very real and unpretentious. Grant named the house Los Palomas and it still maintains it's original hand made terra cotta roof tiles, thick white washed walls, and hand painted Talavera Spanish floor tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms.

The 6,000 sq. ft. 6 bedroom, 5 1/2 bath Spanish farmhouse sits on 1 1/2 acres on a tree lined street in the Movie Colony neighborhood... asking price... $4,995,000.

community gardeners tend


Gardening for food, rehabilitation
City provides seed harvest; community gardeners tend; products goes to the needy.

In Ginny Smith
Nicholas Rowan, a 22-year-old from Mayfair, is for violation of probation time. He does not want to tell the world about his first crime, and inside the greenhouse on grounds Philadelphia prison system in the north-east, it does not really matter.

It is coaxing tiny tomato plants on a little peat pots biggest called "six pack", and had it not been for his orange jumpsuit and correctional officer in the corner, I look for everything the world like any other gardener in the spring.

"We must be very mild," says Rowan, slowly lifting potted plants in another.

This week, under an innovative program called City Harvest, tomato transplants and thousands of other fruits, vegetables and herbal plants should be delivered to 30 community gardens around Philadelphia. There, they will be planted and maintained, the product harvested and finally returned to 30 food cupboards in local churches, community centers and high-and low-income apartment complex.

Last year, gardeners given 12000 pounds - six tons. This year, given rising food prices and increasingly necessary, they are in sight for 15000 pounds.

"We are all really just the idea of getting fresh vegetables to people who need food, especially a large number of elderly who are accustomed to having fresh produce," says Don Nilsen of Powelton Village. Last year, he and four others in the summer of Winter Garden near the Drexel University delivered 237 pounds of greens, tomatoes, eggplants and peppers in a food cupboard to a church nearby.

Now in its third season, City Harvest is distinguished from other prison, community gardening, food distribution and nutrition education programs across the country insofar as it involves not just one or two of these elements, but all four.

"For us, there was enormous power in this idea," says Priscilla Luce, president of the Albert M. Greenfield Foundation, which provided $ 500000 in grants to see the program in 2009. It is managed by Philadelphia Green, the PA Horticultural Society's urban gardening initiative.

The idea came at the same time on several fronts.

First, in the late 1990, supporting foundations began in Philadelphia green insisting that his community gardens generate "greater aesthetic value beyond the improvement of a package in city, "said Joan M. Reilly, Philadelphia Green chief.

Several achievements followed: gardeners who were already informally share their abundant harvests, that gardening is increasingly used in the "healing workshops" on drug rehabilitation and other institutions, and that rates for conditions such as obesity and diabetes are rising.

At the same time, the prison system was looking to revive its horticulture program, dormant since an electrical fire destroyed two-era Victorian greenhouses to the road on a complex ten years ago .

Finally has come more and more advocacy for "food security," the notion that all households, regardless of their income, should have access to sufficient increased safety, affordable and nutritious food.

Steveanna Wynn, executive director of SHARE non-profit, sees it this way: "In some areas of our city, there is no food stores. Corner stores are not fresh produce, and Food is so expensive these days, people can 't afford it anyway. It is a way to get fresh produce in the diet of people who otherwise would not get everything literally. "

SHARE, which stands for Self-Help and Resource Exchange, coordinates the distribution of the City of harvest produce to food cupboards. The Council for the Promotion of Health PA South provides placards with recipes and nutritional information on products are distributed.

Because of the weak economy, Wynn believes that more people will never shared this year's harvest. "It is ugly, and I fear that it will be uglier," she said.

Rowan feels good to know that the Sun and New Golden Girl tomatoes, jalapeno and habanero peppers, basil and oregano he tended eventually help people in need.

"We feed the homeless and people in shelters. This is a good deed and a good cause," he said.

Rowan is one of about 12 men and 10 women prisoners who work - in separate groups - inside the greenhouse or outside the prison in the half-acre organic garden. They are low-security prisoners, most service from 30 to 90 days for offences such as violation of probation or parole, drug use, or non-payment of child support or tickets parking.

Lisa Mosca, an instructor City Harvest, teaching them not only how to grow plants organically, but how to plan the next growing season, the fight against pests through planting sage, and enrich the soil off - season. It also launches in some basic math, resume writing and cooking.

"We cultivate and cook our vegetables here, too," Mosca said, pointing to the hoop adjacent house.

It helps.

"There is no charge things in prison," says Rowan, whose favorite dish is sauteed broccoli with cheese.

These May not sound like earth-life lessons, but correctional officer Tom O'Neal, who began prison at the beginning of the gardening program and now manages the greenhouse, insists they are.

"Life has not been targeted for these people," said O'Neal. "They learn on the propagation of plants, soil structure, a little botany, yes, but also on the work ethic and expand horizons."

The prisoners are fascinated by the symbiotic relationships that exist in nature, for example. "They love that aphids are enslaved by the ants. We tell them everything," said O'Neal, who grew up on a dairy farm in Bradford County, Pa.

And if the season take place in a place full of people obsessed with the passage of time. Rowan now knows the time of sowing and transplantation, when to plant, water and harvest.

More importantly, he knows he could be out of here soon. Maybe it will even make gardening and cooking when he gets home.

For the moment, there are the tomatoes to move from one pot to another.

"You can really get lost here," he said.

Window Seats

Wednesday, May 28, 2008


There's something charming about a window seat. Traditionally it's been a place for storage with a cushion atop under a non descript window in a corner of the house where one seldom visits... not anymore! These window seats are made to be visited often. They are fashionable, functional, and provide a getaway in the confines of home. If you have a spot like this make it a place you can call your own...or a place for the kid in the house that likes to read... but not be alone.... or whatever....

The London shades seem to billow like clouds in the sky....what a lovely place to knit.

Can you sit high above Boston Harbor and find the line between water and sky?

Isn't it Romantic?



With stock kitchen cabinets there is always plenty storage available at this window seat. Cafe curtains and coordinating check cushions add to the simplicity of this decor.

A perfectly traditional home with a perfectly traditional window seat...I like it!

With a table pulled up it's a cozy corner to dine.


I could pen my memoris here.

Victorian house

Sunday, May 25, 2008





Style Guide: Victorian house, at home in Maine

The pared down inside the renovated Victorian charm embodies the quiet seaside living.


To lighten and brighten the outside of this 1886 Victorian house, its owners replaced its dark green aluminum siding with untreated cedar shingles and rebuilt a stern older who have undermined the spirit of housing architecture. Inside, they removed the model wallpapers, alleging carpet to expose the wood floors, and chose painting sunny and comfortable to create an unfussy, streamlined look that suits the house of coastal location.

Come inside and see how an authentic old house has been updated in a modern style with bright colors and simple decoration scheme.

Living Room


"It was the first room we discussed," said the owner of the living room. From working with designer Patricia O'Shaughnessy, they stripped of its wallpaper, installed a bead-board ceiling, and painted the floor a brilliant blue to achieve the crisp, fresh look they wanted. They opted for a mixture of furniture fabrics pale - damask for the camelback sofa, heavy cotton for the adaptation of chairs and slipcover on the back rounded love - seat.

A club president, who had been included in home sales has been rejuvenated by a strong striped slipcover. Surrounded by a golden frame, billowy cumulous clouds rendered in oil by Connecticut artist Ralph Feyl strengthen the calming effect of the room colors. The stars are used as decorative elements inside.

Kitchen


Even if it is in an old house, the kitchen has an elegant, modern thanks to smooth surfaces and a range which is limited to white with touches of yellow and blue. Located at the rear of the house, the newly reconstructed kitchen has pine floors, cabinets tailor, a ceramic and tile backsplash with a diamond pattern contrasts border.

In front of colored glass cabinets display dishes, and the center island makes commodious triple duty office, cooktop, and grill.

Dining


"We bought the house in east - with books, paintings and furniture," says the owner. "We have issued a number of things, but we kept as much as we could." The dining room at the turn of the century, table and chairs are just a few questions that the couple chose to keep.

Fresh picked sweet peas, cosmos, hydrangeas and add color to the table together with flashing pink-decorated cups. A variety of taste treats await the hour of tea in the afternoon. Fishing pale walls are nicely complemented by the beautiful water.

Bedroom


The couple has four converted in close rooms, a master suite consisting of a bedroom, bathroom and dressing room. Taking its cue from the seaside the dressing is animated by cockleshell screen graphic. A vintage photograph, a frosted glass vase full of Queen Anne's lace, and a box of tea discovered in a drawer are displayed on the desktop solid.

In vinegar-pine floors, white walls and a ceiling painted periwinkle Pale create a sense of expansiveness and calm in the main room, as viewed through the door. The canopy bed was built from salvaged wood topped with a porch in the South.

Bathroom


The colors of the ocean and sky are reflected in the tranquil bathroom. Beaded board was used to create a storage space along the wall behind the sink pedestal. Grouped on the corniche are silver-plated Mint Julep cups.

A dish engraved soap and a clay jar filled with hydrangeas sit behind the sink. The various green and blue light in the room are tied together in the simple woven carpets.

Exterior


Pink asters, larkspur, black-eyed Susans and sunflowers dominant colors reflect the inner rooms, flowering and along a path that leads to the beach. The pale, untreated cedar shingles that cover the house replaced dark green aluminum siding. Pots of annuals line the steps leading to the grass.

Owners can take their meals outside here and enjoy the vast views Maine. Inside, the decoration of the house of relaxation to take account of all colors outside of nature that surrounds it.

Great Room



Cypress-twig garden furniture and abundant greenery to integrate the great room with the woodsy patio is just ouside the multipaned glass doors. During the summer, the room becomes a natural extension, the outdoors, taking full advantage of garden parties and garden views. In the colder months, the room is a natural spring of combat.

A 1920s wooden horse that once was, Maryland saddle shop now be regarded as a company with the folk art to create a couple Georgia carver. Other unusual collectibles includes a carved totem pole, wood and iron plant stand, and various weather vane designs.

Charlotte Moss Townhouse

Friday, May 23, 2008


I am a big Charlotte Moss fan and this month's issue of House Beautiful celebrates the first anniversary of her NYC retail establishment Charlotte Moss Townhouse. HB editor Stephen Drucker interviews Charlotte and dubs her," the accessory queen". From featured shots of the home interiors townhouse I would agree. Just like the rooms she designs there isn't much negative space. Every inch is deliciously outfitted with unique upscale accessories for the home. Charlotte thinks accessories bring life to a room... they speak to who lives there. Candle sticks, bamboo pens, hand cut tumblers, pagoda lanterns.... add personality and ambiance. When asked where she likes to shop she mentions designer Suzanne Rheinstein's shop in L.A. and Todd Romano's in Manhattan and would you believe it she loves Target...my kind of lady.

: : the big move




: : so the big move happened on sunday. two truck loads, two moving dudes and some very helpful friends....and then we were sitting in our new apartment, surrounded by boxes and pieces of furniture stacked on top of each other. every day there are improvements, but we have a long way to go. we're currently working on picking some colors for the rooms. nice timing with the long weekend coming up. it will likely be spent unpacking and painting. I promise I will share updates on here. it's just that, I can barely find clothes to wear in the mornings, let alone a camera to document our progress. soon.....

all I know is that .hanna werning's. animal flower wallpapers will be decorating our walls, somewhere in the apartment!

Contemporary Life


When I think of contemporary design and ideas I think updated... new.... a different way to do what we've always done. In design and housing it can be updated building materials, new ways to stylize a fixture. Contemporary is always a more linear look... less is more, everything in it's place. That's my perspective. Here are a few takes on design I call Contemporary Life.
Euro-mobile kitchen- great for condo living


What an inspiring home office


A sleek Italian designed kitchen

Linear designed kitchen storage keeps everything in it's place...it's just what I need

In a highly contemporary dining room add traditional chairs for a twist

New trends in a small space... mount the sink and faucet from the wall

Don't you just love this highly stylized sofa interpretation?...Mumba

French Style in America

Friday, May 16, 2008


French influence in American interior design is everywhere... from the foyer to the bedroom, and everywhere in between. Even the vocabulary of design is saturated with French, my favorite being... chandelier and armoire... don't we all value antiques? Everyone already knows how I feel about toile from my previous post. Americans have always felt more sophisticated and fashionable with what comes out of France. After all Paris is still viewed as the fashion capitol of the world. As America developed it's interior design aesthetic it's no different.... All roads led from France....It's tres chic?
